Each atoll covers an area of around 80 to 90 km² within the rim of the reef, including the lagoons, while the land areas are negligible. They belong to Western Australia. They all rise steeply from the surrounding ocean floor. To the northeast lie the Scott and Seringapatam Reefs which are located on the same undersea platform. ==Naming and history== The Rowley Shoals were so named by Captain Phillip Parker King in 1818 in honour of Captain Rowley who first sighted the 'Imperieuse' reef in 1800.〔Phillip Parker King (1826) (''Narrative of a Survey of the Intertropical and Western Coasts of Australia Performed between the years 1818 and 1822''. ) Project Gutenberg. February 21, 2004 (#11203 ).〕 It is believed that the Rowley Shoals reefs have been visited by fishermen from Indonesia, from at least the mid-18th century. The fishermen were also collecting or hunting for Trepang (holothurians or sea cucumbers), turtle shell, trochus shell and shark fin. These early visitors apparently knew the Rowley Shoals as ''Pulau Pulo Dhaoh''. In later years, fishermen from Roti Island, south of Timor, also visited the Rowley Shoals, which they knew as ''Pulau Bawa Angin''. The individual reefs were also given names, Mermaid being called ''Pulau Manjariti'', Clerke Reef was ''Pulau Tengah'' and Imperieuse Reef was ''Pulau Matsohor''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rowley Shoals」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
